Clean, decently maintained "racino" - slots and VLTs only. Complimentary soft drink dispensers. Tight slots; every tighter on weekends - for all players not fortunate to play the loose machines (the good luck, Asian-themed oversized cabinets). But I heard their balance sheets are solid, so go figure. I advise to go to their local competitor - HC, instead.

I was a hosted player and was never told I could eat at Brews Bros. I was told by another hosted player. As much as I lost I only won 1 jackpot. IN the promotions, money give always I only won $500. 1 time. I recently heard that the big payouts are for the hosted players, well I was a hosted player for almost 2 years. Never met my host until I complained I won a $15 bonus and it erased it along with my promo. It’s so hard to tell how your points add up. I got $135.00 in promos for all I lost and a $20 food credit. This place, the state of Ohio is rapping us. I am finished with Eldorado Scioto!

<![CDATA[Scioto Downs Racino: HORRIBLE!!!]]> https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2509097 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2509097
ABSOLUTELY the WORST casino can you say kegal theft if theyre even legal that is. In the last 7 months theyve practically turned the machines OFF. Im the higest level player you can be there and BELIEVE Me folks, they are ABSOLUTELY not paying anything and uts the same for other properties they own. Eldorado "the four brothers" dont already have enough money I guess. I will NOT be going back to any of their ripoff establisments again!

<![CDATA[Scioto Downs Racino: Great if you like giving money away]]> https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2508477 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2508477
Nice selection of machines but that's where it ends. I see penny slots hit from time to time (maybe $20) but no one in our group has hit on any machine $1 or higher. Ever. Seven different trips there and no one hits ($100 or Higher). Also, you are unable to have a couple of drinks and relax for the evening as there is NO HOTEL. With that said, I remain VERY AWARE throughout my entire visit of how much I'm losing (as noted above)and become almost eager to leave after an hour or so. No one ever wants to drink and drive so our group returned to the locations having Hotel/Casinos. Its relaxing to know we can spend some money, have a few drinks, grab a quick bite and return to our room which is just a couple minute walk away. NO SHUTTLE, NO WEATHER. Our coats stay in the room. What a concept. When I play $1 or $5 dollar slots, I Damn well expect to hit once in a while. Its called getting played. Not taken. I should say however the staff is consistently courteous and helpful. Not sure about the Bar staff however. :( One last item. They need to do something about the COFFEE. OMG. If we are unable to have a few drinks and relax, we should at least be able to enjoy a good cappuccino or coffee.

<![CDATA[Scioto Downs Racino: Ohio casino review from a local]]> https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2507634 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2507634 I live behind the casino and regularly visit. When they first opened the slots were very loose and you could play for a long time and win money. Eldorado casinos has bought them out recently and they've tightened the machines extremely tight. Payouts are low and rare. Bonuses are so tight I have seen and personally have had no pay backs for the majority of the bonus rounds. The place is clean and nice. Happy hour is great for drinks at half price. Then there's Hollywood casino and its even worse. An article in the local dispatch was written about the Ohio gambling commission saying that their upset due to low projected income and wants the casino to increase their profits. Many people are going back to out of state casinos again to play. I hate to see our casinos getting greedy and taking the fun out of playing. Also be aware that many of the posts written are generated from companies hired from the casinos to increase the ratings and to hide the truth their establishments. ]]> Wed, 12 Aug 2015 11:38:43 +0000 <![CDATA[Scioto Downs Racino: A lot of Fun]]> https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2507373 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/ohio/scioto-downs-casino.html/discussions/2507373 Nothing but slot machines and the track, obviously. I've never bet on the horses, but I've heard a lot of good things about it. As for the slots I've personally watched someone win a $2,000 jackpot, a $1,500 jackpot, and I won $500 myself. The machines aren't stingy and you'll win a decent amount on the right machine. It really does seem like some machines have higher payouts than others, and everybody knows it; you'll often see a line 2-3 deep PER machine for the popular ones that people know payout. If you're lucky someone will give up and you'll get to hit a few times. There are always people going around cleaning and making sure chairs are pushed in and things look neat, waitresses and bartenders are friendly, but I had to knock off a star because the bartenders (that I've encountered anyway) aren't exactly professional. I asked for a Crown and Coke and the guy did about a 75/25 mixture of alcohol to coke and it was extremely strong. Bottles or draft beer are nice though. Their INClub card is nice, a couple of dollars here and there plus free play, and you only get to upgrade if you spend more money on the machines, but you get more free play and stuff. Lastly, the food is amazing; they offer a buffet and they also have a small cafe, however everything is ridiculously overpriced. The cheapest thing at the cafe is a hotdog for about $5, and not even a fancy hotdog. That's the only reason I gave Food/Drink 2 stars is for the price, however it tastes great. I'd say your best bet if you plan on eating is to do the buffet. ]]> Wed, 18 Feb 2015 22:50:42 +0000
